Are the Vols close to a decision?

Tennessee’s coaching search has been nothing short of bizarre. After settling on a coach, Ohio State’s Greg Schiano, Vols fans quickly made it apparent they weren’t going to sit around and let Schiano take over the program.

Just a few days later, athletic director John Currie was replaced with former Tennessee coach Phil Fulmer.

Since Fulmer’s hire, Tennessee has interviewed several SEC defensive coordinators for its head coaching vacancy.

Alabama’s Jeremy Pruitt is now seen as a strong candidate.
